Today's article explores the link between antioxidants in chocolate and peak brain function. As it turns out, antioxidants improve brain function precisely because they

If your children are like so many, they love sweets. It seems like it takes a few years for children to appreciate flavors more sophisticated than Hubba Bubba and Fruity Pebbles. If kids were in charge of the grocery list, we would eat popsicles for breakfast and gummy bears for dinner.

If you are trying to wean kids (or yourself) off sugar, I suggest you

I love the taste of the Xocai ProteinMeal Shake. I really do. I have one or two every day. Sometimes I like to mix things up a bit and try new flavors. I use the Xocai weight loss shake as a base for making healthy high-antioxidant diet smoothies. You can download additional Xocai ProteinMeal recipes from the MXI Chocolate website.
